Popis: | Background A 82-year old man was admitted to our hospital in February 2019 for a thorough investigation to determine an incidential finding of a tumor of the stomach in a CT-Scan. He had no history of previous abdominal surgery or of serious illness. The initial symptoms were slight dysphagia, deterioriation in general condition and weight loss in the last months. Endoscopy of the stomach confirmed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the gastric cardia (intestinal type, Siewert Type II AEG) with the suspicion of paragastric lymph node metastasis. The consensus of our Comprehensive Cancer Center was a neoadjuvant FLOT-chemotherapy followed by radical resection. The Patient presented again during chemotherapy in April 2019 complaining of discomfort and epigastric pain. Endoscopy showed a partial regress of the primary tumor and on CT scan a progress of the potential lymph node metastases. Due to the symptoms and findings early resection was recommended. On surgery extensive tumor masses were found around the lesser curve and around the peritoneal cavity not like lymph node metastases. An radical resection with intrathoracic anastomoses with gastric pull up was performed. The patient was discharged 4 weeks postoperatively. The histopathological findings showed 2 other synchronous cancers besides the adenocarcinoma of the gastric cardia (ypT1b, L0;V1,G3,R0, HER2-negative, no microsatellite instability). It showed an early stage of squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus (pT1a (m3-Type), Gn0 (0/21), L0, V0, G1, R0) and the potential paragastric lymphnode metastasis revealed to be a rare high-risk wild-type GIST of the stomach which showed a high mitotic index (> 120 mitoses/15 high-power fields). The patient was readmitted to our hospital because of severe epigastric pain. A CT-Scan showed a massive progress and local recurrence of the GIST with a diameter of 7cm and infiltration into the portal vein and ascites with suspicion on peritoneal carcinomatosis. Despite the attempt of a sunitinib therapy the patient died in the beginning of May 2019 in a palliative setting . Conclusion There have only been few reports in the literature of synchronous triple cancer of gastric GIST, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and gastric adenocarcinoma. In our case we considered the gastric adenocarcinoma to be a middle stage cancer and the squamous cell carcinoma an early stage esophageal cancer. The incidental finding of the high-grade gastric GIST with a high mitotic index and unfavorable histopathological features as the wild-type confirmation was probably the cause of death of the patient. |
